They don’t make that camo pattern anymore, they only offer the shadow camo stuff (mountain, urban, desert). My 6.5 creedmoor has the same camo pattern as that one and it is awesome.
I agree, dude flush cups would be nice and the built in level thing is pretty useless.
I haven't found the level to be completely useless... It's still better then not having it IMO. Slightly lifting the head you can see it and use it. Not as convenient as the scope mounted level, but I'd rather it be there then not.
It dosent hurt anything, you’re right.
PH2. Longish story and goes back to customer service. When I ordered mine from Seekins, they were still the gray stock and natural stainless barrel. I liked the element paint at the time and like black finishes. I added the element paint and Cerakote for the entire rifle at an extra $250 for each item. CS called me back and said they cancelled my order.....What???? Then he explained that they were doing a limited run of 10 of each of selected calibers in the exact spec I had ordered. Seekins did not have to call me and tell me that. I got in right away and got the exact rifle I custom ordered for $500 less, and the best part is these were built already when they dropped the deal, so I went to the front of the line and had it in my hands in two weeks, forgoing the 3 to 4 month wait at the time. Will be forever a Seekins fan for that!
Goal with mine will be to put a break on it, even though it'll only be a 7prc, but with how light it'll be, I'm trying to make it more comfortable and also be able to hopefully get back on target faster. I just want a comfortable rifle for in the back country. After a day of hard hiking, ill care about a couple pounds.
I really want one in 6 creed, but I need to get the kid a dedicated rifle she can call hers first… I don’t know if I will rebarrel my 308 tikka, or if I’m going to get her an 8 twist 243, but I like the rebarrel option which opens me up with a reason to replace that rifle
Do you use a suppressor on yours? I am trying to decide if i should go with the PH2 or the element based on barrel length since i use a suppressor. do you think 26 in and a suppressor on top of that would be too long for most hunting?
if you had to pick between the ph2 and element in the 300prc knowing you would suppress it which one would you go with ? I mainly do shoot open country where i hunt in wyoming and take my 30-30 if i want to go into dense timber, but i would like it to be ideal to carry and use with suppressor on at all times if i happen to not take my 30-30
If your goal is a good suppressor platform, then the element, or a re-barreled PH2 (comes out a little cheaper, but a little heavier tho you have a steel action)
I have been eyeing the 7prc too. I have no idea how to choose. i hate choices haha
What are you wanting to do with said rifle? Animal, distance, hunt type etc.? Unless you are truly wanting way out there power/energy, the 7 is going to likely be a better option I would say and ballistically, within hunting range, has the ballistic advantage with regards to drop and drift.

7 would be perfect for that. If you like .30, get the 300, but at those distances, 7 all day long.
I am running a suppressed Element in 7 PRC. I just sent my 300 down the road. For the distances you are talking about the 7 will do what you want in a more manageable package and hey this is Rockslide so more smaller is more better.
Thanks for posting the link to this article. I have been battling with the same question and this article was very informative.What are you wanting to do with said rifle?

7mm PRC vs. 6.5 PRC vs. 300 PRC – Ultimate Reloader
I ended up going with 7prc. I feel like it will let me reach an elk or deer further than my creedmoor. Ballistically out to 600-700 there doesn’t seem to big enough advantage energy wise on the 300prc to deal with extra recoil with factory loads. If I was reloading then there might be a good advantage
